Canada vs USA: Where to watch the 4 Nations Face-Off Championship online and on TV
It was a feisty affair in the group stage, and now we will see the two hockey giants face up again in the showpiece final.
Team USA punched their ticket to the final of the NHL 4 Nations with a win over Canada at a packed house in Montreal on Saturday. Jake Guentzel scored twice with Larkin bagging the other for the Americans in a comeback win that saw US goaltender Connor Hellebuyck made 25 saves.
With the win in Montreal, the U.S. cemented their place in Thursday’s final in Boston and then sat back to see who they would face. Monday’s win over Finland gave Team Canada a total of five points, and so the showpiece final is set – a rematch of that bruising first encouter.
The hype is real. 🫨

US bounce back against Canada
Let’s take a look back on that first game...
Canada’s McDavid opened the scoring at the 5:31 mark of the frenetic affair, lifting a backhanded shot into the back of the net to complete a deke on a breakaway.
Guentzel evened the score just under five minutes later when he fired a shot through Binnington’s legs from the left wing, a goal that clearly frustrated the Canadian netminder.

Larkin put the Americans ahead at 13:33 of the second period. Taking advantage of a Team Canada turnover at the offensive blue line, Larkin was sprung on an odd-man rush. He wisely elected to shoot from his off wing and cashed in on the opportunity.
Guentzel added an empty-net goal with 79 seconds remaining in regulation to round out the scoring.
The NHL 🏒 nailed it with 4 Nations Face Off.

The victory may have come at a high price for Team USA. Matthew Tkachuk played only two shifts in the third period – and none in the final 12:36 of the frame due to an apparent injury. He took to the ice testing the issue during television timeouts. Sweden beat the U.S. on Monday to close out the round robin.
